A nasal aspirator should be cleaned after each use to prevent a build-up of bacteria which could lead to infection.

However, these are more expensive than manual aspirators. Another issue is that it’s possible for mucus to build up in hard-to-clean areas of the device, potentially giving rise to contamination from germs.
